Thoughts on 🇵🇸🇮🇱
If terrorists break into a school would you just bomb the whole building or find other ways to kill the terrorists without kids dying?

I can understand that Israel has the right to defend itself.
I can understand that Hamas is beyond peaceful resolution because the destruction of Israel is part of their doctrine.
The whole "no matter what the cost" logic baffles me though. The cost is the whole point. If you are actually fighting evil, the point is to defeat the evil not to try to be even more evil yourself. If it was so outrageous to have 1500 citizens killed by terrorism, why is it OK to turn around and kill 10000 civilians in retribution? That only empowers the terrorists recruitment efforts.
